Review: MATLAB is an interactive system for numerical computation. This book gives an introduction to the most popular features of the program, covering all that most users will need to know. It describes MATLAB 7.01, although most of the examples work with modifications of MATLAB 6. It also provides a compact reference for program users: even experienced MATLAB users may be unaware of some of the functionality of the latest versions. The book begins with a tutorial tour of MATLAB. Subsequent chapters introduce topics in a logical fashion: arithmetic, matrices, operators and flow control, M-files, graphics, linear algebra, numerical methods, input and output, troubleshooting, sparse matrices, the symbolic maths tool, case studies, and the top 111 MATLAB functions.
